Lavender · Big Pasture
Ten acres below the pond dam near Road 8. One acre and 1,500 plants to start, more every season after.
The plan
Lavender gets the same discipline as the cattle and the hay: soil tested, rows laid out for water and weeding, harvest timed, and every bottle traceable to the ground it came from.
Test the soil, work the site below the dam, plan the rows and the water.
1,500 plants go in the ground. The journal follows planting day.
Young lavender takes a couple of seasons to fill in before a full harvest.
New acres each season toward ten, and distilling on the ranch.
